Chianti Classico Nuovo

93/100

The Chianti Classico Nuovo is a 100% Sangiovese from an old vineyard that matures for 12 months in a cement barrel (650 l) in the shape of an egg. Hence the twist with the name (n)uovo (uovo means egg in Italian).  The Nuovo is a full, complex Chianti Classico with juicy tannins and bright acids. An absolute top wine. Combine with grilled meat, game or mature cheeses.

An absolute delight

Rated by Vinous on 15/06/2022

The 2019 Chianti Classico Nuovo is 100% old-vine Sangiovese aged in concrete. Bright and effusive, with striking aromatic presence, the Nuovo is an absolute delight. Nervy, persistent tannins and bright acids are a reminder we are in Radda. This mid-weight Chianti Classico has so much to offer. Bright red fruit, white pepper, chalk and dried flowers linger.
